SERIES FX

PERMANENT LIFTING MAGNETS

FX Series

Permanent Lifting Magnets with manual activation

Permanent lifting magnets work without the need for external energy supply; they are activated manually via an operating handle and are the most commonly used lifting magnets. Permanent lifting magnets are suitable for lifting and moving individual loads such as sheet metal, rough parts, forgings, castings and profiles with a load capacity of up to a maximum of 3 tons and are used in all industrial sectors wherever iron metal parts need to be handled.

The FX product family includes so-called universal lifters and specific models for any type of load: we are sure to also have the right lifter for your application
Safety factor 3,5.
Complies with CE/EN 13155/MRL 2006/42 EWG standards.
5 years of warranty.

SPARE PARTS

SPARE PARTS ALWAYS AVAILABLE

Activation Lever

Robust and ergonomic made of tubular steel, plastic material and soft rubber in the handle.

Set of marked plates

Made with a particular printing process, they must always be legible for the correct use of the lift by the operator.

Front and rear aluminum panels

Used to avoid intrusion of foreign material into the magnetic circuit and are easily replaceable in case of breakage.

Top cover plate

The top plate acts as a magnetic insulator.

Eyelet

Molded in carbon steel and tested for more than ten times the load, galvanized DIN 912 8.8 fixing screws, (observe the tightening instructions).

Ball bearing

Promotes rotation and avoids dust intrusions inside the magnetic system.

FAQs

TECHNICAL AND OPERATING INFORMATIONS

The contact surface between the magnetic lifter and the load must be clean and free from irregularities of any kind

A distance between the magnetic pole of the lift and the load to be moved creates an air gap. Rust, paint, dirt, paper or an irregularly worked surface can create air gaps, the force of the lifter is inversely proportional to the thickness of the air gap.

Material thickness

The path of the magnetic flux inside a piece consists of a semicircle that starts from the center of a pole of the magnetic lifter to the center of the opposite pole. If the piece is thinner than this radius, the part of the flow that comes out is dispersed and does not contribute to anchoring it. The resulting attraction will be less than what you will get when all the flow is absorbed by a piece of adequate thickness to contain it.

Load dimensions / intrinsic balance

Contact surface, thickness and length of the material to be handled are factors that influence the attraction force of a magnetic lifter. We recommend consulting our technicians to check the suitability of the lift chosen for your application.

Chemical composition of the load

The chemical composition of the load to be lifted can also influence the attraction force of a magnetic lifter, depending on its magnetic permeability. Common steels (ST37-52) with low carbon content have good magnetic permeability. Alloy steels with a content of non-ferrous components have a low magnetic permeability. Hot treatments that modify the molecular structure of steel can also reduce magnetic permeability. The more a steel is "tied", the worse the magnetic response and the higher the possibility of having residual magnetism in the piece.

Temperature of the load

As the temperature increases, the molecules of the ferromagnetic material move faster, this phenomenon causes a reduction in the magnetic conductivity of the material itself. Recommended operating temperatures are for loads up to max. 80 ° C. In the case of the FX-V lift, the max. operating temperature is 150 ° C.

Check the magnetic lifters

The FX series lifts are delivered with a manufacturer's declaration of conformity which guarantees compliance with the MD 2006/42 EC and EN 13155 standards. An additional check must be carried out for particular situations (blows, collisions, breakages) DGUV / BGR 500 / Chapter 2.8. A regular check must be carried out with a minimum annual deadline according to DGUV / BGR 500 / Section 2.8.
We will be glad to verify your magnetic lifters at our office. We are always equipped with all spare parts, in the event of breakage, the lifts will be restored quickly.
